Black Book: Cloud Transformation Now Core to Provider Growth Strategies in $275B Market Expansion
Survey of 890 U.S. provider and payer organizations reveals accelerated migration timelines, multi-cloud adoption, and investment-grade ROI drivers through 2026 NEW YORK CITY, NY / / August 12, 2025 / Cloud transformation has emerged as a defining growth lever for healthcare organizations, reshaping technology roadmaps, operating models, and capital allocation strategies. Black Book Research's eight-month study, spanning 890 provider and payer organizations, finds that 78% of U.S. hospitals, health systems, and physician groups have approved significant cloud investments to be completed by mid-2026. The findings point to a sector-wide reorientation toward AI-native, multi-cloud platforms that can deliver measurable returns within the first year, meeting urgent demands for interoperability, compliance, and operational resilience. With the healthcare cloud market projected to grow from $65 billion in 2025 to $275 billion by 2034, investors and executives alike are treating cloud migration as a strategic growth mandate rather than a discretionary modernization project. 6 Forces Driving the Cloud Surge 1. Accelerated Migration & EHR Integration72% of organizations are replacing legacy on-prem systems with cloud-native platforms, slashing maintenance costs and delivering analytics in hours instead of integrated delivery networks are moving at the fastest pace, with 84% reporting enterprise-wide deployments already in motion, while smaller hospitals and physician groups are ramping up phased migrations to balance risk and budget impact. Vendors like Inovalon, Innovaccer, and Health Catalyst are embedding directly into major EHRs to eliminate data silos. 2. Interoperability as the Deciding FactorWith TEFCA enforcement on the horizon, 81% of executives rank interoperability as their top selection criterion. Winning platforms now deliver sub-24-hour onboarding from multiple sources, automated FHIR conversion, and seamless cross-system integration. Vendors like Orion Health, Redox, and InterSystems are enabling cloud-native, standards-driven interoperability that shortens AI deployment cycles and opens pathways to new care models. 3. AI-Powered Decision Support Becomes StandardBy mid-2026, two-thirds of provider leaders expect embedded AI for predictive analytics, readmission reduction, and chronic care optimization. Early adopters report 15-20% fewer avoidable readmissions and improved quality scores. Cloud platforms such as Pieces Technologies, and LeanTaaS are embedding AI directly into care workflows to deliver measurable outcomes. 4. Security and Compliance Close Deals Faster88% of IT leaders identify security as their primary concern, but procurement is twice as fast for vendors with HITRUST, SOC 2, and GDPR compliance plus tested ransomware recovery plans. Healthcare cloud platforms like ClearDATA, Clearwater Compliance, and Cloudticity integrate advanced compliance frameworks with native security capabilities to meet stringent requirements without slowing deployment. 5. Specialty & Population Health Analytics Surge59% of ACOs and CINs are expanding specialty analytics (behavioral health, pediatrics, chronic disease) directly in their cloud stack, reporting up to 12% improvements in HEDIS measures within the first reporting cycle. Vendors such as Arcadia, Lightbeam Health Solutions, and MedeAnalytics are delivering targeted analytics modules optimized for cloud environments. 6. Real-Time Dashboards Redefine Board GovernanceDemand for dynamic, cross-domain dashboards is up 34% year-over-year, enabling 20% faster operational pivots during surges and crises. Cloud-native solutions like Dimensional Insight, Tableau Healthcare Cloud, and Explorys are empowering executives with unified, near-real-time views of clinical, operational, and financial metrics. Market & Regulatory Pressures Reshaping Strategies Regulatory deadlines are playing a major role in the rush to the cloud. The 21st Century Cures Act and TEFCA are accelerating the need for seamless data liquidity, forcing providers to upgrade infrastructure faster than planned. At the same time, a growing patchwork of state privacy laws is pushing organizations toward configurable compliance modules that can adapt to multiple regulatory environments. Cloud strategy is also being shaped by operational resilience goals. 41% of providers now operate in multi-cloud environments, using redundancy to prevent outages and gain better leverage in vendor negotiations. In rural communities, the shift is unlocking new capabilities: 27% of rural hospitals adopting cloud in the past year report same-day access to analytics for the first time, reducing dependence on distant IT teams and improving the speed of decision-making. By the Numbers - 2025-2026 U.S. Cloud Investment Landscape Black Book's eight-month survey and extensive follow-up polling reveal clear patterns in how providers are prioritizing and structuring their cloud strategies: Budget Allocation: IDNs are committing the largest budgets, allocating 22-36% of total IT spending to cloud infrastructure, while small hospitals are investing $850,000-$2.1 million annually. ROI Drivers: Reducing IT maintenance costs (78%), improving disaster recovery capabilities (71%), supporting remote workforce enablement (69%), increasing interoperability (66%), and accelerating AI adoption (63%). Migration Models:Hybrid cloud (69%), lift-and-shift (64%), replatforming (42%), multi-cloud from the outset (36%). Top Workloads Migrated:EHR and other clinical applications (72%), imaging archives (61%), revenue cycle management or billing systems (56%). Contractual Priorities: HIPAA/HITECH compliance clauses (96%), BAA scope definition (92%), breach indemnification terms (89%). Top Barriers: Migration costs (68%), lack of internal expertise (64%), compliance concerns (61%). Looking ahead, the top areas targeted for new investment through 2026 include multi-cloud orchestration (61%), cloud-native EHRs (58%), AI platforms (56%), and FHIR/NLP-powered interoperability solutions (53%). Forecast: From Cloud Migration to Cloud Domination "Cloud adoption in healthcare has crossed the tipping point," said Doug Brown, President of Black Book Research. "By 2028, we project that over 90% of U.S. hospitals will operate core clinical and financial systems in the cloud, with the fastest growth coming from AI-native, multi-cloud platforms that can demonstrate ROI within the first year. Through 2028, the most successful provider organizations will be those that can translate cloud adoption into measurable ROI within the first year, using AI-native, multi-cloud platforms as both operational infrastructure and strategic differentiators." About the 2025 Black Book Cloud Study - Market Intelligence for VCs, PEs, and Investment Banks This comprehensive 55-page report incorporates responses from over one thousand U.S. hospital and health system executives, CIOs, and physician group leaders, plus 428 additional stakeholders including payers, investors, and legal experts. Vendors were evaluated on 18 critical KPIs, from migration speed and uptime to AI enablement and regulatory readiness. For investors, the report serves as a high-value market intelligence resource to identify emerging category leaders, assess scalability potential, and validate market traction in the rapidly expanding healthcare cloud segment. Venture capital firms can use the findings to spot high-growth innovators with proven adoption metrics. Private equity groups can leverage KPI comparisons to support roll-up strategies or evaluate acquisition targets with defensible competitive positioning. Investment banks and advisory firms can apply the performance data to inform deal structuring, due diligence, and market-entry timing for clients seeking exposure to healthcare cloud infrastructure. The report's longitudinal survey data and adoption trend analysis also offer forward-looking indicators on which subsegments such as AI-native decision support, multi-cloud orchestration, and TEFCA-ready interoperability platforms are positioned for the highest near-term ROI and sustained market share growth through 2034.

The Latest Way JP Morgan Is Attempting to Lure Office Workers? A Danny Meyer-Curated Food Hall
JP Morgan's fancy new $3 billion 60-story skyscraper at 270 Park Avenue between East 47th and 48th streets, is making its latest move to lure employees back: a Danny Meyer-curated food hall. Two restaurants announce they're flipping to catering Harana Market, one of the most exciting restaurants to open in the Catskills – known for Filipino dishes like its tofu sisig – surprised fans when it announced that it would be winding down dine-in service this fall. Through Labor Day, they're moving service to Saturdays and Sundays only from 11:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. After that, they will convert the space into a commissary kitchen to cater to pop-ups and other events. 'This evolution is part of our commitment to keeping Harana sustainable for us as a family while remaining rooted in the things we love most: feeding people, building connections, and amplifying and uplifting our Queer, Trans, and AAPI culture,' the post reads. Harana Market first opened in Woodstock in 2020 as a deli and pantry shop before relocating to a larger space in Accord, New York, in a former barn in 2023 as a full-on restaurant. In 2024, it was a James Beard finalist. Meanwhile, over in Brooklyn, the Greenpoint neighborhood French restaurant Fin Du Monde announced over the weekend that it would be discontinuing its restaurant service as of August 16. Come fall, the restaurant will also pivot to a private events space, as well as a hub for classes and catering. Before opening in 2020, chef Nick Perkins had worked for Diner and Marlow & Sons, with his wife Mona Poor-Olschafskie, an alum of several Brooklyn breweries. More fro-yo coming to Manhattan We are in the midst of a big fro-yo boom. Last month, Eater reported Mimi'swould be opening at 231 Lafayette Street, at Spring Street, where Soho meets Nolita. Now we have the scoop on another fro-yo shop: Birdie's is coming to 152 Seventh Avenue South, at Charles Street, in the West Village. Owner Alexa Marks, a former social worker, tells Eater that she wanted to start the business because she missed the way 'the local fro-yo shops were everyone's watering hole' back home in Los Angeles, and wanted to bring that here. 'Frozen yogurt really needed a refresh, something that meets the times while still keeping the simple joy people love about.' Flavors will include chocolate, vanilla, original tart, peanut butter, coffee, and a dairy-free option, with a toppings bar.
